Character Information

Justin lives in Waverly in Manhattan with his younger siblings, Alex and Max, his father, Jerry and his mother Theresa. His parents own a sandwich shop called the Waverly Sub Station and the entire family works there.

It is unknown if Justin has lived in Waverly Place his whole life but it is known that he has Latino heritage from his mother's side. His mother often tries to get him to learn about their Latino heritage. From his father's side he inherited his wizarding skills.

Justin's girlfriend is a creepy but pretty gothic girl named Miranda (Lucy Hale). However, Alex's best friend Harper (Jennifer Stone) has a crush on him.

Justin loves comic books and action figures and is very knowledgeable, he is even shown to have knowledge about brain use by different genders. He is allergic to cinnamon.

Justin is a very cynical, intelligent and responsible boy, and according to Alex he has a lot of knowledge about "stuff people don't really care about" (i.e. academic stuff), but he does not have much knowledge about relationships and sports.

Powers and Abilities

Justin is a confident and responsible wizard. He is a teenager first and a wizard second and is reluctant to use magic unsupervised; however sometimes, with some concern from his siblings, he does. On the other hand he almost always listens to his father when it comes to magic but still gets involved in his siblings' shenanigans, however in the end he makes things right with the help of his siblings. He is capable of using magic without any aid.

• Justin has used the spells: "EdgebonoUtoosis", "Macreary Timereary ", and "Transportium Nextorbitorium". And he got the wizards into the genie`s lamp.

Running Gag

A running gag show in some espiodes is that Alex sometimes say "dolls" then Justin will say "action figures". Example: Alex: " He got all tense and frusterated like he acts around you and your dolls" Justin: "Action figures, mint condition,in their original packaging".
